A zero gravity recliner reclines you into a position with your legs raised, without the roller mechanism of a full massage chair. Recliners are lighter and usually lower-priced than massage chairs, and several add heat, vibration or air massage. Here are the zero gravity recliners on emassagechair.com for 2026, compared using the specs on each product page.

Svago Lite 2: Simple and Lower-Priced
The Svago Lite 2 is the lowest-priced recliner here. It has a powered zero gravity recline with two motors, vibration, lumbar heat, an adjustable headrest and a dial-with-buttons controller. It needs 16 inches from the wall and weighs 84.2 lbs.
Svago ZGR: Memory Positions and a 400 lb. Rating
The Svago ZGR lets you control the backrest and ottoman independently and save three memory positions. It adds vibration, lumbar heat, memory foam at the neck and lumbar, and a 15-minute timer with a smart wake-up feature that restores the chair automatically. Plan for space: it needs 28 inches from the wall to recline. Read our Svago ZGR review.
Svago Newton: Two Different Chairs
The Newton comes in two separate versions, and each has its own product page.
Svago Newton (top grain leather)
The leather Newton lists top grain leather upholstery, three motors, a powered headrest, two programs, two memory positions, seven airbags for back air massage, lumbar heat, memory foam, a battery backup and a 1-3 hour sleep timer. It is $3,499.99 as of today.
Svago Newton - Synthetic Hyde
The Synthetic Hyde version is $3,199.99 and has the same features as the leather Newton. The only difference is the material: synthetic leather instead of top grain leather. You get the same three motors, powered headrest, independent backrest and ottoman control, two programs, two memory positions, seven airbags for back air massage, lumbar heat, memory foam, battery backup, 1-3 hour sleep timer, and handheld remote with armrest smart buttons.
Both Newtons share the same listed dimensions, 11.8-inch wall distance, 5'0" to 6'3" height range and 400 lb. recommended weight.
Svago Motion Mastery: Unlimited Positions
The Motion Mastery lounge chair lists unlimited recline positions, seven preset recline positions, two massage programs, two memory slots, air massage at the seat and lumbar, heat and top grain leather. It needs 12 inches from the wall.
Human Touch Laevo ZG with Lift Assist
The Laevo ZG lists an extended zero gravity recline, vibration, air massage at the headrest, lumbar and legs, and heat at the back, seat and legs. Its name includes lift assist. See the product page for how that feature works. It needs 21 inches from the wall and lists a 285 lb. recommended weight and a 5-year limited warranty.
Human Touch Gravis ZG: Close to the Wall
The Gravis ZG needs only 3 inches from the wall, the least of any recliner here. It lists leather upholstery, three motors, a powered headrest, three programs, five airbags for back air massage, and heat at the lumbar, seat and legs. You can control it with a button-style remote or the iOS or Android app.
How to Choose
- Small room: the Gravis ZG (3") needs the least wall space. The ZGR (28") needs the most.
- Higher weight rating: the ZGR, both Newtons, the Motion Mastery and the Gravis ZG list 400 lbs.
- Leather: the Newton (leather), Motion Mastery and Gravis ZG. For the Newton's features at a lower price, choose the Synthetic Hyde.
- Longer warranty: the two Human Touch models list 5-year limited warranties.
Recliner or Massage Chair: Size and Weight
Recliners are much lighter than full massage chairs. The Svago Lite 2 weighs 84.2 lbs. and the Newton models weigh 110 lbs., while a 4D massage chair like the Titan TP-Epic 4D weighs 202.8 lbs. That makes a recliner easier to move into place and a good fit for rooms where a full massage chair would feel too large.
Before You Buy
- Measure the space behind the spot. Wall distances run from 3 to 28 inches.
- Check the reclined length. Most Svago models list 63 inches reclined.
- Confirm the height range and recommended weight for each person who will use it.
